Reportedly, Priyanka was upset with the makers after two more actresses were roped in for 'Bharat'. "She also got to know about Salman's habit of arriving late on the sets and starting his work way past lunchtime, while his leading ladies' scenes with Salman are shot in his absence," a source was quoted saying. As a result, she decided to walk out of 'Bharat'.

The source further stated that it was difficult for Priyanka to work in an unprofessional atmosphere. "At this stage of her career working on roles that challenge her is more important than being seen with Bollywood's A-list superstars. Priyanka is all set to marry Nick Jonas. They will produce films together. She can co-star with anyone she wants," the source added.
